Hi all,
I wonder how instructors and coaches approach warmup. I normally take a run on a gentle groomer to get going, and then I head to the fun, more challenging places. But I am sure there is more to it. I used to see ski youth racing teams warm up on the slide side at Mt Rose, and the warmup was very structured. Any good tips for a proper warmup for civilians?
Part of the motivation for me to bring this up is the comparison of two recent ski days, with and without warmup, same place, similar conditions ... night and day in terms of endurance during the day and recovery! Duh, as expected
